        "\"This book is a reply to many requests for simple information from those who say 'Dante is too deep' for them. \n[...]\nIt is not a given to all to have leisure or inclination either to penetrate deeply enough into the long mazes of the Divina Commedia, or to study the Italian language sufficiently to appreciate the subtle touches and apt allusions which , when pointed out, are such a help and delight. Therefore the most notable of these, with explanations, have been collected and arranged in this little book, so that they be readily found and assimilated with very small effort by those who have only few moments to spare in this hurrying age. \n[...] \nThis is not a commentary nor is the book compiled from an argumentative or historical point of view: it is merely an endeavour to gather together in a. compact form some of the beautiful and elevating thoughts [...] Together with Dante's own words quotations are added from commentaries on Dantesque literature, which has been so largely enriched by the grand perception and laborious study of the finest minds since that day when the poet passed."

        "The Scotsman - 20th July 1914\n\"Deeper books might be needed by profound students; but this is a capital book for a beginner in Dante study\". \n\nSheffield Daily Telegraph - 20th August 1914\n\"It is delightful to discover how great is the interest in Italian literature, and Dante has a fascination fro very many minds. Here is another Dante book, whose charm of letterpress is wonderfully helped out by the full-page plates, of which there are eight.\" The reviewer misgenders the author by writing \"Mr [?] Bainbrigge himself shall describ the content of his book.\" \n\nBirmingham Daily Post - 4th September 1914\n\"The work of selection and compression must have been very difficult and, while such work will always bear some marks of individual predilection, it has in this instance been carried out with careful discriminating thought\"\n\nThe Spectator - 3rd October 1914\n\nYorkshire Post and Leeds Intelligencer - 25th November 1914\n\"It is a modestly, sensibly and most pleasently written book which should amply serve is unambitious purpose of indicating some of the beautiful and most significant passages and thoughts of the immortal poem. The writer has studied her subject well and lovingly, and has also made herself familiar with much of its vast literature\"."
